The Revenge Gang regrouped at their base, with Gao Xin eting up with everyone.
All those who had followed him were there, except for the ones who had died.
So were treating their wounds, while others rested.
Gao Xin looked over his crew; from Yamaguchi Village, there were only five Radiants who had co out with him: Su Lei, ii, Liu Xu, Sun Chuan, and Li Shande.
The rest were the Glass people, Qiao Long, Han Qing, Dong Chuan, Peter, Luo Ban, Xing Shiping... a total of six.
As for the group that had initially been handed over to Han Qing, along with Xing Shiping’s companions, all were dead.
The man with the square face, the curly-haired youth, all had been killed in Charles’s pursuit.
Gao Xin had brought the bodies back, and Xing Shiping cried his eyes out before staring at Charles hatefully.
"I’ll kill him with my own hands!" his eyes were bloodshot.
At that mont, Charles had already been mutilated by Gao Shu: his limbs cut off, and he was suspended by chains.
Hearing this, Gao Shu scratched his head while receiving bandaging from Chef Xue, "Er, you probably can’t cut him to death."
"How is that possible..." Xing Shiping snatched the knife from Su Lei’s hand and lunged forward to hack violently at Charles.
However, even in such a miserable state, Charles was still not soone he could kill.
Xing Shiping struck like a whirlwind, but to no effect on Charles. Even striking the wounds only turned them montarily redder, that was all.
"What..."
Xing Shiping was dumbstruck; he was allowed to chop, and after dozens of strikes, not a scratch was made.
Gao Shu sneered, "Each stage of a Radiant has a different constitution."
"Wolf-level is called the Iron Body, Tiger-level the Super Body, Elephant Level the Diamond Body, Dragon-level the Giant Dragon Body."
"Normally speaking, one percent of the strength of a Wolf-level could breach the defense of another Wolf-level, which is why it’s possible for an ordinary person to kill a Wolf-level."
"But the Tiger-level’s resistance to strikes is one-tenth of its strength. Charles has at least a strength of thirty tons, so to breach his defense, you would need at least three tons of force..."
"Of course, if you hold a sharp weapon, you can reduce the requirents accordingly, but without six hundred kilograms of strength, I’m afraid you can’t even cut through the skin."
Xing Shiping stood there stunned; he dropped the knife in his hand.
He didn’t even have six hundred kilograms of strength.
A sharp weapon was not almighty; even an extrely sharp knife needed great force to slice through wood.
And Charles’s body was much tougher than wood, akin to iron and stone.
There he was, his enemy right in front of him, severely injured and waiting to die, yet despite his hacking, he couldn’t kill him.
Gao Xin handed him the Demon Blade: "Use this one."
Xing Shiping hesitated but ultimately looked down with determination and said, "Boss Gao, I want to beco stronger."
Gao Xin nodded, "Sure, I still have a hundred and forty thousand redemptive tickets."
"That could turn fourteen of you into Radiants."
Everyone exchanged glances. Fourteen people? Only six Glass people were left from those who had escaped Yamaguchi Village...
Gao Xin sighed. He never anticipated that upon leaving the ga, his team would suffer such calamity.
Glass people, they were really too fragile.
Under assault by a gang of bandits, they had almost been wiped out.
No wonder it was said that Glass people were safest working as laborers in big gangs and had no business wandering around.
However, in this battle, both Sun Chuan and Li Shande had broken through to Sub-Wolf level, and of the five little ones, aside from Liu Xu, three had reached Sub-Wolf, and one, Su Lei, had beco a True Wolf.
Their strength was still laughable, but Gao Xin knew that their progress was already quite fast.
Sasaki had been on the island for at least two or three years and was only at Sub-Wolf level.
This wasn’t incompetence, rather it was normal. Ling Sha had taken five years to go from Small Wolf to True Tiger.
Unless one faced death every day like him, not just the edge of physical death but also psychological despair.
Otherwise no one could leap into True Tiger in just one month.
When people were killed, they really died.
Silver Hand was the perfect example. He made three breakthroughs in succession and then... he was gone.
His will to live, his thirst for revenge, were all maxed out, and yet what was the point?
Gao Xin turned his gaze once again toward the Cassandra Won’s Group. This team seed to be mostly weak won, but their strength was actually quite impressive.
They also had many ordinary people die, leaving thirty won remaining.
There were six Radiants among them, including Cassandra at Sub-Tiger level, Taylor at True Wolf level, and four other Sub-Wolf level won.
"If you need gene protectors, I can also provide those," Gao Xin said with a smile.
The instance with Charles, Cassandra had desperately covered the retreat, saving everyone; the remaining Glass people were mainly her group’s mbers.
With spare slots available, it was natural to distribute them to the won.
Cassandra stared deeply at Gao Xin, asking, "I’m curious about what you said earlier, that you have a history with us and that you know Xiaoyuan."
"But since she arrived on the island, I’ve taken care of her, and she’s always been with the Won’s Group, never having t an outsider."
"She also says she doesn’t know you. So, what’s the deal?"
She pulled Jiang Yuan out from the crowd. Jiang Yuan looked at Gao Xin, puzzled; she genuinely did not rember Gao Xin.
"At Mass Burial Ridge, I let Xiaoyuan stab with a sword; do you not rember?" Gao Xin smiled faintly.
Upon hearing this, Cassandra and Taylor were still confused and didn’t rember this incident.
Jiang Yuan, on the other hand, shuddered, her eyes filled with a mix of emotions as she stared in disbelief at Gao Xin, "You? You’re the one?"
"The man on the brink of genetic collapse and death?"
Only then did Cassandra react, also staring at Gao Xin in astonishnt, "Ah? It’s him?"
They could never have guessed that the man on Mass Burial Ridge, whose genes were collapsing and rotting away, was actually Gao Xin.
